Summary

  • Removes the "Reserved directory names" section added to create/files.mdx — the framing was incorrect (the restriction isn't specific to static file serving)
  • Adds missing directories to the default ignored patterns list in organize/mintignore.mdx: build, dist, coverage, .cache, .vscode, tmp, temp

The server skips these directories for all files during deployment (MDX pages included), not just static assets. The mintignore page is the correct home for this information, alongside the other directories already documented there.

Resolves DOC-311
